MASSEY FERGUSON MF 1100/1130 TRACTOR PROMOTIONAL FILM "THE RED GIANTS" 14534

for years Massey Ferguson tractors have been acknowledged by farmers all over the world is the best that money can buy originators of the Ferguson system of hydraulic control and mounting implements on the tractor instead of pulling them behind they were the pioneers of farm mechanization other tractor manufacturers quickly fell into line until now nearly all are using some form of the Ferguson principles expanding the technological revolution in agriculture which Ferguson had begun since that beginning some farmers have come to think of the Massey Ferguson as a small tractor forgetting that the first Ferguson type tractor substituted power and traction or weight inside actually it outperformed machines three and four times in size and weight since that first tractor Massey Ferguson has consistently built tractors designed to match the size of the farms they had to work on and the job they had to get done and now in keeping with the trend toward ever larger farms and for the men who must find efficient means of farming those big acreage Massey burgers proudly presents the MF 1104 the big new 94 horsepower engine a bigger than ever new Ferguson hydraulic system to match and for men who want even more power than this here's the MF 1130 the most powerful rope tractor ever built by Massey Ferguson turbocharged to 120 horsepower this tractor is able to pull eight bottoms down the field at high plowing speed either of these tractors is available in standard lugger type wide row crops like this one with front wheels adjustable from 56 to 88 inches or dual tricycle models with reversible front wheel row crop models can power adjust the rear wheels from sixty to ninety six inches a full eight feet and all are available with drawbar hitch three-point hitch or pressure control pressure control is Massey Ferguson's latest great step forward in the use of hydraulic weight transfer weight is transferred from the front end of the tractor and from big bull type implements to the rear wheel at the flick of a lever to give traction weight transfer traction with big pull type influence as you see in this demonstration on special electronic load cell weighing platforms that way the tractor and a 21 foot disc harrow at three points the front tractor wheels the rear tractor wheels and the wheels supporting the full type disc arrow as we move the pressure control lever the dial indicators will register the weight transfer from the tractors front wheels and from the disc arrow to the drive wheels of the tractor in this case 2600 pounds is transferred at the flick of a lever truly these are tractors able to bring big power big traction and a new high in efficiency to a courage job and what kind of men were these tractors designed for corn and soybean farmers like this man who farms 900 acres in Illinois big acreage small grain farmers like this man who raises two thousand acres of barley wheat and oats in North Dakota row crop men like this southern farmer who works 3,500 acres of cotton and soybeans in western Mississippi and raises cattle beside Nebraska men who use their big acreages for such diversified farming operations as corn wheat oats cattle and hogs wheat farmers in Western Canada where thousand acre farms must be operated with a minimum of hired help all of these men are not only representative of the kind of farm operators these tractors were designed for but are also men who actually tested and approved the first of these tractors but we're getting ahead of our story you see when you decide to build tractors like these they don't just happen overnight not at Massey Ferguson it takes a lot of thought and planning and digging into years of experience of men who have spent years designing and building the kind of farm equipment that has made Massey Ferguson the world's largest manufacturers of tractors combines and diesel engines experience with every kind and type of component from hydraulics to engine design to plastic knobs it takes digging into the latest reports on metallurgical research time and motion studies on tractor operations driver safety comfort then when all this know-how was resolved into blueprints for the tractors each piece had to be checked and tested both by themselves and in conjunction with each other the tractors assembled and checked by the same experts who had designed them [Music] finally they unveiled them for complete and thorough testing under any and all conditions by the very men for whom the tractors were designed farmers from all over the United States and Canada corn men small grain farmers cotton and soybean growers big acreage diversified farmer wheat farmers men who farm any and all kinds of crops on acreages run all the way from 600 to 3500 these men were told only one thing make these tractors do anything in the world you think the best tractor in the world should be able to do we won't be satisfied with anything less because we think they are the best the farmers took them at their word they not only operated the new ffs eleven hundred and eleven 30s but compared them with competitive makes as well tractors of equal or greater power rating they tested them for power and traction they compared them for comfort for visibility for ease of handling [Music] and what were the results of these tests let's let the man who made them speak for themselves first on platform design I think it's got one of the best platforms on the market the platform's not too high which i think is a common fault with some of the competitive makes at this platform businesses getting our reason for height it's too hard to get on and off and this is a also a clear platform one that goes all the way across it's open the front of seat on pressure control well when you get into them with the cultivator it's just like got the anchors into the ground and with pressure control of course you transfer additional weight onto the rear wheels and enables you to pull through them that's a lot more desirable from the farmers point of view than lifting up and going over them I was actually very surprised that they would stick other tractors of a bigger horsepower and much bigger tire size than the 1100 and then they would after they stuck them so they couldn't move him they would pull him out and back the nací into it and move out with it just how they did it I don't know but they just had such a conversion of traction that the tires had just kind of buckled down and she'd come on out it had a it just had a wonderful traction system on versatility horsepower and economy we thought it's attractive a big improvement or anything that we had had in the past and there are big rugged tractors tractor that is very versatile in this has a horsepower to do most any job that I think that man would demand of it it's big enough to do most any job that we ask it to do but at the same time it's not too big to do the smaller jobs and not too expensive to operate on the smaller job and we just were real high on 1,100 tractors on power and traction well the only two tests I think of any tractors how it performs in the field is a comparison to other tractors under the same conditions under the same Lord and this we did and these tractors both 11:30 outperformed the other make trekkers the 11:30 that had more power than any taxes there it's to the same Lord's we would hang one tax traps and but the Ellen aren't the same Lord and 11:30 would pull the Lord's for the others wouldn't and from the wheat country on controls and handling well that was one of the things that I thought was the exceptionally fine on where the convenience it be the these are the controls and the the operation of that tractor was real good the platform was clear wasn't cluttered up the steering wheel had a one of the better points I think about it though he said you would raise the steering wheel stand and operate the tractor and still have all your controls right in your fingertips on appearance and styling I like the tractor he's got a good appearance it looks like a rugged tracker you can just walk around the back of it and look at the hitch and the final drive housings I'd say the styling is good its original it's a styling it's not a copy styling and I like to wait drives wait handle it's responsive engine I don't think you'll find a better motor in any factor of this size the motor has all the power of the speeded the textured Pappy and quite an economical motor at the same time and these are not just carefully selected comments on practically all elements all of these men said the same thing the styling is up-to-date look I got Adam was there a real rugged look in a kind of a look that I think is going to stand out well I was very impressed with the power that they produce for the size of the textured they had and and the maneuverability of the tractor was very impressive I think you have one of the best mortars that's made with deep braking we do have traction problem we need horsepower and traction and we think that the 1100 has both and far as these tractors the operator comfort ease of handling was outstanding the controls were easy to get out I really liked the platform plus the steering column I mean it's really impressive I like it well we think we'll only the pressure control system certainly gives the weight transfer that the desirable with your told implements it just shifted more weight to the tractor thereby giving a tractor more traction the pressure control took my there was something I wasn't used to but when we hitched it two loads and use that pressure control and can move loads that otherwise we couldn't begin to move I saw they had something that was outstanding here I did like the saddle tanks for the gas because you could fill a gas tank without crawling up on the tractor right from the ground there's no trouble at all to service this tractor with this kind of approval with this assurance from the kind of farmers who would use them that these two new tractors were better than anything else on the market they were ready to go into full manufacture the production line started to hum powerful engines bolted into place power presses made fenders and body panels the tractors were assembled for rapid delivery to dealers all over the world and here they come from Massey Ferguson's great production line to you 94 or 120 horsepower strong five tons of brawny brainy muscle the totally new direct injection diesel powered MF 1100 and 1130 tractors here's the power to beat the manpower shortage to plow six to eight furrows at a pass or disc over 100 acres a day and up in the roomy control cockpit you ride in man pampering comfort the advanced ferguson system gives you precise control of mounted and semi mounted implements a touch of the pressure control lever boosts traction as much as 50% with full type emblem ER hydrostatic power steering is effortless the steering column is adjustable and the air oil suspended air luxe seat is the most comfortable ever designed and built by farm minded engineers tested and approved by the kind of men they were designed for let your Massey Ferguson dealer show you both of these big new tractors available with whatever combination of options will make them most suitable for your operation
